Nose: Weird. Woody and cereal, more like cheap blended scotch than brandy. A tiny hint of raisins and sugar. It's not offensive, and even attractive in its own strange way, but it ain't brandy. Wow - this really does smell like Grant's blended scotch. Palate: I don't know what I'm tasting. This is a slightly sweet, vaguely brown-sugar and dark fruit flavoured alcoholic fluid, but incredibly dilute and lacking in character. There is a hard, hot and brittle sting of alcohol, even though it is only 74 proof. Finish: None. Some sweet sugary flavours that linger for a few moments. No, I've never heard of it before either. I grabbed a small 150ml flask of this today when I was at the liquor store because I was in the mood for a brandy Alexander after work and I didn't want to open the only bottle of cognac I have. There were alternatives available for a few dollars more, but ... oh well. We won't do that again, will we? I tried to find out something about this but there is zero information available. I can only presume it is the lowest grade of French brandy, imported in bulk and given a registered brand name when bottled. It tastes like ugni blanc eau-de-vie given a few months age in tired old casks and maybe hit up with some dosage. The pale straw colour would bear that out. No, I never got my Alexander 😞 "Bad" : 52/100 (0.25 stars)
